Crafting in Holosim lets you turn raw materials into useful items such as resources, contracts, and ships. It’s one of the main ways to progress and support your faction.
What you can craft
-
Resources: refine raw materials into usable items.
-
Contracts: items you can sell back to your faction NPC for zATLAS rewards
-
Ships: new ships for your fleets, sometimes requiring permits.
Some recipes are locked at the start. As your character levels up, you’ll unlock more advanced recipes.
How to craft items
-
Go to a faction-controlled starbase: click the base on the map.
-
Open the Crafting tab: select Crafting from the Starbase menu.
-
Choose a recipe: pick what you want to build (resource, contract, or ship).
-
Select the quantity you want to craft: choose how many units of the recipe you want to produce before starting the job.
-
Assign crew: assigning more crew speeds up the crafting job.
-
Start crafting: confirm to begin production.
Collecting results
Once a crafting or upgrade job is complete, go to the Current Jobs tab to collect your finished items or rewards.
Base upgrading
The Base Management section inside the Crafting menu lets you contribute to base upgrades:
-
Deliver ressources to push progress.
-
Earn Loyalty Points (LP) for contributing.
-
At the end of the cycle (24h), LP can be claimed for zATLAS rewards.
